Deere & Company Recalls Lawn Tractors, Blade Could Operate While Mower Unattended

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The hazard

A problem in the manufacturing process could cause damage to the circuit in the interlock module. If the interlock module fails, the mower blades will be able to run with no operator on the tractor seat. Consumers could suffer injuries from contact with operating blades.

What to do

The company is directly notifying those consumers who purchased an affected tractor. Consumers should contact a John Deere dealer for a free repair.
